• Number of Poles:

• Typically three poles, but other configurations (e.g., four poles) are also available.

• Auxiliary Contacts:

• Available with various Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) auxiliary contact configurations.

• Coil Voltage (Uc):

• Available in a wide range of AC and DC coil voltages.

• Mechanical Life:

• Typically millions of operations.

• Electrical Life:

• Depends on the load and utilization category.

• Degree of Protection (IP):

• Varies by model, e.g., IP20, IP00 (can be improved with cover plates).

• Terminal Type:

• Screw terminals, spring clamp terminals, etc., depending on the model.

• Mounting Method:

• DIN rail mounting, screw mounting.
